    TPG | #156 A DAO Conversation

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. This episode brings a deeper, more strategic conversation as we unpack one of the most important proposals in the history of the DAO — the evolving relationship between the DAO and Steem Monsters Inc. Joined by Clay, Dave, and the crew, this discussion centers around what it really means to move toward a more aligned, community-owned future for Splinterlands. We dive into the proposed funding structure, IP ownership, and long-term vision of transitioning from a set-by-set funding model into a more stable, contract-driven approach. From revenue streams and Battle Pass concepts to DAO co-ownership and sustainable growth, this is a wide-ranging look at how the ecosystem could mature into something far more structured, transparent, and scalable. It’s thoughtful, forward-looking, and at times philosophical — the kind of conversation that doesn’t just react to where the game is today, but actively shapes where it’s going next. Enjoy the show!

    UTH | #6 Yabapmatt & DaveMcCoy

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. This episode delivers another installment of Under the Hood, the newest show under the TPG banner — hosted by @keeegs. Under the Hood is where we zoom out from battles and cards to explore how ideas are formed and developed behind the scenes of Splinterlands. In this conversation, Keeegs is joined by @yabapmatt and @davemccoy to discuss upcoming changes to Production Power for Modern cards, the challenges of card inflation, and the philosophy behind introducing new systems rather than adjusting older assets. The discussion also offers an early look at buildings and expanded land production, along with updates to the land white paper and a proposed new financial structure between the company and the DAO. A concise look at the economic thinking and design decisions shaping the next phase of Splinterlands. Enjoy!

    TPG | #155 A TPG Roundtable

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. In this episode, we’re joined by @azircon and @davemccoy for a candid, wide-ranging conversation following the Escalation pre-sale. With 313K packs sold and 100 million SPS raised, the numbers speak loudly — but the real value of this discussion lies in what comes next. We dig into pricing strategy, community sentiment, governance dynamics, legacy card value, land utilization, onboarding friction, and the broader challenge of building in Web3 while earning long-term trust. AZ brings sharp perspective, Dave brings clarity from the operator’s seat, and together the conversation pushes into meaningful territory around decision-making, communication, and growth. It’s reflective, direct, and forward-looking — exactly the kind of dialogue that helps shape what Splinterlands becomes next. Enjoy the show!

    UTH | #5 Blazekos

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. This episode delivers another installment of Under the Hood, the newest show under the TPG banner — hosted by @keeegs. Under the Hood is where we zoom out from battles and cards to examine how ideas are formed, tested, and brought to life behind the scenes of Splinterlands and the broader Web3 ecosystem. In this conversation, Keeegs is joined by @blazekos for a wide-ranging discussion that blends marketing strategy, Web3 realities, and the challenges of building in an emerging, still-undefined product space. They explore what it means to navigate an undiscovered market, how to communicate value to both gamers and collectors, and why experimentation and iteration matter so much when you’re operating at the edge of innovation. From blockchain-native collectibles to playful, forward-looking ideas that don’t exist anywhere else yet, this episode highlights the fun — and the friction — of creating something genuinely new. It’s a thoughtful, exploratory look at growth, storytelling, and innovation in a space that’s still writing its own rules. Enjoy!

    TPG | #154 An OFG Conversation

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. We’re back with another episode of TPG, and this time we’re joined by @ourfadedglory — better known to many as OFG — for a wide-ranging, boots-on-the-ground conversation about land, strategy, streaming, and where Splinterlands is headed next.  From his early days discovering the game in 2020 to navigating land economics, wildcard strategies, Modern vs. Wild dynamics, and the ever-evolving reward system, OFG brings a thoughtful, player-first perspective shaped by real experimentation and long-term commitment. We dig into pack strategy, voucher distribution, new rule sets like Outsider, and ideas that could meaningfully improve the experience for smaller accounts. It’s equal parts meta talk, economic theory, and community vibes — the kind of episode that reminds you why this ecosystem is still so compelling. Enjoy the show!

    TPG | #153 A DaveMcCoy Conversation

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. We’re kicking off Season 5 of TPG with a wide-ranging conversation alongside @davemccoy, touching everything from Survival Mode and Frontier experiments to skins, dynamic cards, AI-generated music, and the growing list of systems quietly reshaping Splinterlands under the hood. We dig into upcoming Vinny and Mags skins, early thoughts on Survival Mode and its bracketed structure, the evolution of Frontier as a true sandbox for new mechanics like Overlords and Boss Monsters, and the launch of SplinterVibes — a tokenized, in-game music experiment that feels straight out of classic gaming nostalgia. It’s one of those episodes that captures where Splinterlands is right now: experimenting, iterating, and slowly layering new pillars onto an already deep ecosystem. Lots of forward-looking ideas, plenty of community integration, and no shortage of “what’s coming next” energy. Enjoy the show!

    TPG | #152 An MTGJedi Conversation

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. We’re back with a brand-new episode of TPG, and today we’re joined by a fresh face in the Splinterlands community: @teammtgjedi. Many will know him from the Grand Prix, where he first dipped his toes into the game — but he’s also a long-time strategy gamer, seasoned content creator, and now… a budding Splinterlands convert. In this episode, we walk through his first impressions of the game, the learning curve, rental strategies, Ghost Modern exploration, the rating system, and what it feels like for a new player to step into our ecosystem. We also dive into the broader gaming world he comes from, including his work as a board game designer. His latest project — a fast, fantasy-themed math-strategy title — is currently live on Kickstarter, and you can check it out here: Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alariaquest/alaria-quest-the-goblin-kings-dungeon SideQuest Games: https://sidequestgamesllc.com/ It’s a fun conversation, a fresh perspective, and a great reminder of how Splinterlands can feel through new eyes. Enjoy!

    UTH | #3 MattClarke & Bjangles

    Welcome back to the People’s Guild. Today’s episode brings another deep-dive installment of Under the Hood, the newest show under the TPG banner — hosted by @keeegs. This series breaks down the systems, structures, and decision-making processes behind the Splinterlands DAO, giving the community a clearer look at how governance, funding, and long-term planning actually take shape. In this conversation, @keeegs sits down with @mattclarke and @bjangles to unpack the inner mechanics of the DAO Foundation, the multi-sig structure, and how legal responsibilities intersect with on-chain governance. They explore the origins of the Foundation, how directors are selected, the challenges of maintaining trust and transparency, and the future direction of Chairman bounties. From there, the discussion moves into the ongoing effort to define a DAO constitution or governance framework — what it should do, what it shouldn’t do, and how it could help guide proposals without restricting community creativity. The episode also touches on the role of the DAO in game development, the boundaries between community voting and team authority, and the importance of clearly defining jurisdiction so the DAO’s efforts remain focused and impactful. Finally, the group explores long-term contract stability for Splinterlands development, DEC volatility, and ways to improve the proposal experience for players. Below is everything that went down in the newest episode of Under the Hood. Enjoy!
